Fay (florence) Simon passed away peacefully Oct. 27, 2021, in Cincinnati, Ohio, at age 95.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Abraham and Pauline Rabitz, her beloved siblings, Fran Brauner and Joe Rabitz, and by two husbands she adored, Jack Landau and Abe Simon.
She is survived by four children and their spouses: Gary and Judy Simon, Kathy and Ron Lieberman, Michael Landau and Brenda Seiton, and Ed and Laurie Simon Goldman.
Fay was grandmother to 12: Jill Marcus, David Lieberman, Steven Lieberman, Ian Simon, Jay Simon, Andy Simon, Lea Schweitzer, Zack Goldman, Josh Simon Goldman, Hannah Simon Goldman, Ellie Simon Goldman, and Jack Landau. She had 15 great-grandchildren. A widely extended family of many nieces and nephews were also very close to her heart.
Fay grew up in Bridgeport, Conn., and graduated from Smith College. She moved to Wilkes-Barre in 1947, and remained in the area until her 2004 move to Cincinnati with Abe. She worked as the Senior Adult Director at the Jewish Community Center, and generously volunteered her time and skills to many, many organizations in the community.
